The Pink Flamingo is a fascinating and beautiful bird that has captured our hearts and fascinated us for years. Since Don Featherstone created a plastic image of the pink, long-legged creature that has stood proudly on our front lawns for decades now, we have been fascinated with the beauty and quirkiness of the flamingo.

Restaurants, hotels, casinos, and movies have been named after the flamingo and used it's image along with the color PINK to promote their business and liken themselves to the beauty, elegance, intrigue and awkwardness of the pink bird.

Not too long ago, the reputation of the flamingo hit a snag and the plastic pink lawn bird became known as a kitschy trailer park decoration. And unfortunately, the John Waters film, Pink Flamingo did not help flamingos social status either.

However, over the past couple of decades, there have been several documentaries that have given us a glimpse into the strange and captivating life of the flamingo species around the world. We have been mesmerized by the choreography of their mating dance to the sight of thousands of flamingos migrating to the same spot every year and turning the earth into a sea of pink waves from above. These images have recaptured our intrigue and renewed our interest in the Pink Flamingo. And the flamingo image has since then heightened it's social status, and become one of our favorite decorating images.

Now you can find the image of the flamingo found everywhere from home decor, party themes, novelty items to a fashion statement. It's image can be seen displayed in it's elegant form, in a tropical setting, to a humorous cartoon image. But no matter what form it takes, we our captivated by all the beauty, elegance, awkwardness, quirkiness and posture the flamingo has to offer.

When it comes to "flamingo fashion", we just can't seem to get enough of it. You can find many images of the flamingo displayed on every piece of clothing from dresses, shirts, shorts, shoes, socks, handbags, jewelry and hats.
